What's left?? 99,breakout and soul are known by 4 people, it would make those 1k people in the arena happy but leave unsatisfied casuals,it can't bč the solution( might be for a night, what about the next one?)... What i'm trying to say is that the songs that he can really pick to make casuals and diehards happy( want It or not but songs like sleep and wgigo can be fun at a concert) and that can bč sang(or at least not completely botched) by jbj are those 30 that are played today...he might variate 3-4 at night like u said but It won't change Pretty much anything
And Amen is known by?
Or WLOL?
Or fvcking Born To Follow which tanked everywhere and unlike Everyday (that was somewhat popular) he's hellbent on TRYING TO MAKE IT HAPPEN
Or...?

We could do this all day long.

The reasoning is, if you go to several shows, you'll get used to all the *hits* that Jon is trying to cram down everybody's throat. But if you go to several shows, you'll hear the same basic setlist almost down to a T which means you'll probably don't go to more than 2-3 shows if you where planning to do more, which will mean that you'll forget about those songs nobody cares about because they are frankly shit songs. Same would happen if he sang King Of The Mountain. You either know it and enjoy it, don't know it but like it or ignore it. To an average casual fan Amen is as rare as King Of The Mountain so the reasoning behind why so many songs are not being played is simply a lie.

Do you honestly think that people are listening to Amen and saying damn I want more of this??


PS: I posted before I saw your reply, this rant is not against you but against defending their bullshit
